A new public history exhibit, “Jacob’s Pillow in Lee, Mass.,” will open June 1, 2026, in the Scolforo Gallery at the Lee Library. The exhibit traces the long and often overlooked relationship between the internationally renowned dance hub Jacob’s Pillow, and the neighboring town of Lee from the early 1930s to today. Researched and curated by Lee resident Joshua D. Bloom, the exhibit will be on display June 1–30, 2026. It will be open to the public during the library’s regular hours when the gallery is not hosting other programming.
